Last night I stopped off at Target and was surprised to see the CAM Set/factory was on clearance for $27.98. I can only think that it was one of those odd Target things, but I decided, what the heck, time to start my Christmas shopping!

YESSSSS!!! MattelShop has a pack of CAM torsos in the first series colors! Five torsos (two for the first two starter packs and three for the add-on sets) in the proper colors! And only 8 bucks to boot! (limit two sets per order)

The Target exclusives you saw are the Scary Tales line. I saw them for the first time the other morning and they were all gone by the evening!

I saw the Walmart exclusive Dot Dead Gorgeous 3-Pack today at a couple of Walmarts. $39.99 each. In fact, one Walmart had finished that areas reset and had the School Playset, Coffin Bean, DDG Set, Ghouls Rule and the latest doll assortment too. Probably more as well. I bet the area will be mostly the leftover 1600s, Rochelle Goyle and Roadsters tomorrow. Nice to see such much new stuff at once though!

If anybody wants the CAM playset check your Targets quick! Don't know if this is a national thing or not, but I was just picking one up to look at it today and noticed a clearance tag on the top edge -- $39.99 to $29.97 (or something close to that, don't have the box by my side at the moment) -- took it to the scanner to double check and it scanned at $19.98!!! Bought!!!

I would guess the JC Penny and Costco (is that it?) exclusives will be out later, closer to the holiday. I wish we had a Costo; I'd rather get that Coffin Bean set, but will probably have to settle for the regular version.

Well, my store finally put out the design lab add-ons and I picked up both this morning. Can't say that I'm all that thrilled with them... Yes, we get a torso, an extra head and a bunch of tattoos but there's no wig, no dress, no shoes and no upper limbs... Personally, I think Mattel really needs to re-evaluate the add-on sets and just charge a bit more and put enough parts for a complete doll in there...

Anyway, my plans to complete the unicorn involve two of the tri-color pastel Liv wig -- one for the head and one to turn into a horse tail for her. Will probably order some of those heelless shoes from an Etsy seller to give her something of a hoof appearance. Still trying to figure out what to do for an outfit...
